The general plan involved a feint on our left toward Haines's Bluff, by the navy, under Admiral Porter, with whom we were in constant communication, while between him and General Sherman perfect harmony existed. On the right a demonstration by A. J. Smith was to be made. General Sherman gave his orders in person to Morgan and Steele.
Confident that he was lying, I turned quietly away and proceeded down the hall toward Mayor Packard's study. "I wish to speak to the mayor," I explained. "He's not there." The man had eagerly followed me. "He's not come home yet, Miss." "But the gas is burning brightly inside and the door ajar. Some one is there." "It is Mr. Steele. He came in an hour ago. He often works here till after midnight."
No. 187. Thursday, October 4, 1711. Steele. ... Miseri quibus Intentata nites ... Hor. The Intelligence given by this Correspondent is so important and useful, in order to avoid the Persons he speaks of, that I shall insert his Letter at length.

"I guess Mr. Steele hasn't dressed many babies." "He did the best he could," said Mrs. Hoden. "Lord only knows what would have become of us! He brought your cowboy, Russ, who's been very good too."

"And come back with plenty of money," put in Bobby, smiling.
I held in abeyance my last conclusion regarding Sampson and Wright, and only awaited Steele's return to have fixed in mind what these men were. Wright's remark about Steele not returning did not worry me. I had heard many such dark sayings in reference to Rangers. Rangers had a trick of coming back. I did not see any man or men on the present horizon of Linrock equal to the killing of Steele.
In addition to the 65th Rifles of Montreal, the Winnipeg Light Infantry, with whom I served, and some irregular scouts under Major Hattin and Osborne, we had two Mounted Police detachments, one from the mountains under Inspector Sam B. Steele, and the other from Fort MacLeod under Inspector A. Bowen Perry, the present able Commissioner of the Force.
His friends were diverted with the expedient, and by paying the debt discharged their attendants, having obliged Sir Richard to promise that they should never again find him graced with a retinue of the same kind." These little pleasantries are echoes of the halcyon days when Steele thought Savage a very fine fellow, made him an allowance and even proposed to become the poet's father-in-law.
